sysctl.d — Configure kernel parameters at boot
/etc/sysctl.d/*.conf
/run/sysctl.d/*.conf
/usr/lib/sysctl.d/*.conf
systemd uses configuration files from the above directories to configure sysctl(8) kernel parameters to load during boot.
The configuration files should simply contain a list of variable assignments, separated by newlines. Empty lines and lines whose first non-whitespace character is # or ; are ignored.
Note that both / and . are accepted as separators in sysctl variable names.
Each configuration file is named in the style of
                <program>.conf.
                Files in /etc/ overwrite
                files with the same name in /usr/lib/.
                Files in /run overwrite files with
                the same name in /etc/ and
                /usr/lib/. Packages should install their
                configuration files in /usr/lib/, files
                in /etc/ are reserved for the local
                administration, which possibly decides to overwrite the
                configurations installed from packages. All files are sorted
                by filename in alphabetical order, regardless in which of the
                directories they reside, to ensure that a specific
                configuration file takes precedence over another file with
                an alphabetically later name.
